Refer to Figure 6 which shows a typical installation of this ap-
pliance into an existing solid-fuel fireplace.
WARNING: This appliance is equipped with a safety control sys-
tem designed to protect against improper venting of combustion
products. Operation of this heater when not connected to a prop-
erly installed and maintained venting system or tampering with
the blocked vent shut-off system can result in carbon monoxide
(CO) poisoning and possible death.
Insert must be vented to the outside in accordance with the current
edition of the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI-
also known as NFPA 54
chimney flue serving a separate solid fuel burning appliance.
This gas insert requires a 4" diameter B-vent or listed flex alu-
minum or stainless chimney liner extending the entire length
of the chimney to ensure proper operation. The vent should
terminate with a chimney cap or rain cap. Chimney should be
sealed around cap to prevent air and rain from entering chimney.
Adhere to vent manufacturer's instructions for installation and
vent termination.
A minimum flue height of 1 feet is recommended.
The insert must be installed so the draft hood is in the same
atmospheric pressure zone as the combustion air inlet to the
appliance.
